Chapter 539 - 533: Nasty Trick (First Update)
The enhancement of Divine Soul Power was just the first step in breaking through to the Soul Sea Realm. The transformation of Spiritual Power was the second step in boosting strength after breaking through to the Soul Sea Realm.
Although called the second step, in essence, the transformation of Spiritual Power after reaching the Soul Sea Realm still benefited from the enhancement of Divine Soul Power.
After a Martial Artist successfully opened their Soul Sea, they would begin using Divine Soul Power to refine their Spiritual Power, stabilizing their Cultivation firmly within the Soul Sea Realm.
Divine Soul Power, compared to Spiritual Power, was like a natural forging hammer, which could make Spiritual Power denser and more refined during its circulation.
Of course, the effect was not as significant as the enhancement of Divine Soul Power, mainly because the Spiritual Power had already been refined countless times before and had become extremely refined.
Now that the Divine Soul Power was enhanced, it was possible to refine Spiritual Power once again.
If the Spiritual Power before the Spirit Transformation Realm was iron, then after breaking through to the Soul Sea Realm, it turned into Refined Steel.
The strength of Martial Artists in the Soul Sea Realm lay precisely in this aspect.
The more refined Spiritual Power, whether in offense or defense, became significantly more powerful. This was one of the fundamental reasons why Ye Zhen’s Floating Cloud Finger couldn’t instantly kill a Fifth Realm Martial Artist of the Soul Sea Realm initially.
It was only because of the boost from Purple Spirit residing in the first Innate Bloodline that the Floating Cloud Finger could instantly kill a common Fifth Realm Martial Artist of the Soul Sea Realm.
